This comprehensive and well-illustrated book provides a reasoned approach to the everyday practice of ophthalmology. This new edition has been updated to include contributions by thirteen highly qualified ophthalmologists with special experience in many aspects of the subject.

In particular, the section on “Common Ophthalmic Problems” which, like a “book within a book”, indicates to students the most important eye conditions for study.The new edition has been expanded to include the latest advances in research and practice.
